Wow, thanks for the trivia, I thought Curry had already won a Finals MVP but he didn't really won one.
based on my research, (https://uk.sports.yahoo.com/news/nba-betting-jayson-tatum-not-steph-curry-now-favorite-to-win-finals-mvp-180555239.html)

It says "Curry has three NBA championship rings but has never won Finals MVP"....

This is his time for sure, he just need to win the championship.

Yes, Steph Curry didn't experience yet becoming a Finals MVP on all their Championships.

2015 - Andre Igoudala
2017 - Kevin Durant
2018 - Kevin Durant

In this Championship series 2022, Steph Curry is no doubt the top performer for the Golden State Warriors that's why if ever they will get the championship, he's the automatic NBA Finals MVP. The award that he deserved for a long.

Now the series gets better, Curry lead the Warriors for the big win, the series is now even.

Curry had a double double, 43 points and 10 rebounds, enough to beat a strong home team.
As for the betting odds, Warriors are now favored to win the championship.

GSW 1.65 vs Celtics 2.25

Yeah, and the next game will be at Chase so for sure, the odds are going to shift on their favor. I think this is a defining victory for the Warriors with Curry having that big game. I can't recall how many times he score 40+ in the playoffs of if he actually score that much.

So we will see in game 5 now, and if ever the Warriors win the finals, for sure this will be Steph's 1st Finals MVP and them being back at the top of the NBA.

Curry is closer to the finals MVP as he clearly have the momentum to continue his offensive fire power , and this finals series is getting interesting. it's like the odds are taking turns to who ever win the game currently.
Since the start of the finals series I always thought the Warriors would win a championship again. However, the Celtics are also showing they also deserves to win.

Yes you are right that mate Stephen curry is close to finals MVP if they win two more times against boston celtics maybe they can do that and once again they will became a champion. But for sure its hard for them cause Tatum, white , brown and The rest of their team want to became a champions and for sure they will do their best in the game five of this conference. Two win to go gsw fans by the way congrats to us who supported gsw nice win.

Curry is closer to the finals MVP
I've read an article that consists of Brown, Tatum, Curry, Thompson, and Smart for the contenders of the finals MVP.
Article: NBA Finals MVP Ladder: Jaylen Brown passes Stephen Curry for No. 1
And this article said that it's Brown on the no. 1 while Curry is on the no. 2. I think if The Warriors will get the ring, it's for sure that Curry will get the finals MVP whilst for the Celtics, I thought that it's Tatum who's leading.

I didn't read the article, but probably it was written before this game, wherein the Celtics is on top and we haven't seen Curry his 40+ points in game 4. And If they win the championship, the trophy will go to him. And if the Celtics win, then it's going to be a toss up between Tatum and Brown.

But it's not over yet, but I guess we can smell that maybe, just maybe the Warriors will have the edge going at home for game 5.

If Warriors wins game 5, that will give the Warriors a good advantage as they were able to win on the road already. I like their chances, they played better at home and Curry is still unstoppable, that 40+ points gave him more confidence that him alone can beat the Celtics.

Tatum and Brown had a decent performance also and the entire roster actually are contributing, it's just that Curry were going for a win.

This was not the case in the early games, and many believed the Boston Celtics would be champions. After the last game, the number of people who thought that Golden State Warriors would win increased considerably. Curry played really well and helped his team win.
The next game will be very critical and if GSW wins this game as well, the Boston Celtics' chances will be greatly diminished Sad

Mmmm yes Klay Thompson and Curry are playing good but they not are in that peak performance we see in other years. I know its a complex sport and this depends in a lots more factors and not only they individualist.

And yes in the past their were champions because they have mens like Igoudala and Draimond green and also Cook from the bench making a good performance.
It's because they're losing but even if they didn't play at their peak and they've won, we'll say that they've played at their peak and that's satisfying. Well, just this news that Curry will play for game 4 no matter what, I think that there's a pain on him, not an actual injury but maybe there's something that he feels bad physically or I'm just thinking too much because this final is just too good for most of us.

its true that bench players should really be having some gametime on this finals at least.
I agree on this, I remember when Ariza was still in Lakers and was a bench player. When he was given to play in the finals, he showed his best and that's the time when he became popular and recognized.

So its for the Warriors how to defend their team so that the result for the next game will still be consistent in favor for them.

Yeah, this is as close to a must win for the Warriors as it gets without the Celtics having won 3 games.  They certainly don't want to get on that plane tonight being down 2 games and risk losing the series in 5.  Not that I think that's going to happen; the NBA wants the series to go to 7 games for obvious reasons.  To be honest I don't trust the NBA for anything other than to ensure that the Finals go for seven games, lol.

Finals so it's gotta be Celtics or Warriors.

Game 2 soon and the game 1 was full of excitement and hype. This was the first time again more than years ago when I've watched Celtics at the finals.

The rookie in the finals have made their very first momentum and hopefully, they'll make it again but this is GSW. They're known as one of the kings of the finals.
We are seeing a lot of momentum from Celtics this season but things changed when in the finals. Especially that they are competing with the battle tested GSW, i guess the next games will be tougher than ever. The Game 1 was definitely very entertaining, both of the teams are well competitive. I just hope that there will be less serious injuries this time as it could trigger the performance of their star players, which will affect the whole team as well.
Now the game 2 has favored the Warriors and so the next games will be more exciting because both teams have already scored. But honestly, no matter how strong or capable the Warriors, the Celtics are also showing some outstanding performances that we never expect. So its for the Warriors how to defend their team so that the result for the next game will still be consistent in favor for them.

The only thing Golden State can do to win the championship its to have again the two splash brothers in a blesed state.

The Splash Brother performance in Game 3 is good and no question about their contribution. What the Warriors need to do is to unleash their bench players that show good performance during the playoffs. Steve Kerr should give them an opportunity to show what they got and not just focus on his starters.

Warriors also need a boost from Andrew Wiggins and Jordan Poole. They are one of the big reasons why the Warriors are in the NBA Finals right now. There are still plenty of games left and the Warriors will not just allow the Celtics to have an easy path to the championship although I'm rooting for the Celtics to win here.
Its understandable on why Kerr do really put focus or emphasis on his starters but its true that bench players should really be having some gametime on this finals at least.
I dont have any doubts on splash brothers performance it is really just their execution of plays arent really that much effective specially against with Brown which i could
say that this man does have a good eyes on various conditions which he could set out countermeasure if ever warriors do make out move.
They dont able to contain nor isolate yet you could see the differences in terms of attacking the basket.

I really didn't expected Celtics to get ahead on this series and they did it twice. I get that the first game could be a shocking situation, Warriors didn't know how to play against Celtics, they of course scouted them a lot but they just watched them, actually playing against a team during finals is a different situation.

However, the third game, this one that Celtics got a win, is a different situation. First of all, it is obvious that Draymond Green is just a dirty player who doesn't have any talent and only shined because he played with Curry and Klay, let that be open. He had a great season or two, but right now he sucks. Secondly, it is not enough for Curry and Klay to score, but they need better defense for sure, Tatum and Brown running circles around them at this point.

Im really surprised with Boston performance against Golden State, they are really capable in defence and are playing smart.

The Warriors are really capable on doing that and they will do that again in the next upcoming games, they have just lose in Game 1 because they slacked in the last quarter that's why the Celtics managed to win. This time around, the Warriors will defend much better even though they are more of an offensive team, they will win even if that means no rest in the whole game.

I'm just curious for Klay Thompson though, he's having a hard time playing the last 2 games.
We'll see it tomorrow and we know that this time if Warriors will be the consistent one.

Nah, they lost at TD Garden. I'm seeing that they will have a hard time again next game and they will certainly have a hard time snatching some road games. The Celtics was good in terms of adjusting and I think they could really dominate every game if they will make some good use of their sizes just like what happened earlier because the Warriors are having some trouble inside especially Green. Thompson is back though but unfortunately the others aren't in their usual performance.
Good observation, Boston uses their sizes and established that good lead not to allow the warriors to come back, the adjustment that being done really showcases how flexible the Celtics now. They are not forcing the shots they keep attacking and trying a much better look inside. The defense also gives a hard time for the Warriors. Williams keeps blocking every shot from different players of the warriors.

If they play the same coming game 4, Warriors will be at risk. We never if what coach Kerr will design to adjust to how

Boston play, but it's really a big need for them to catch up and tie these series for more exciting games to come.

Warriors took the lead in the 3rd quarter then it all went Bostons way. Incredible performance by the Celtics. They needed it, now the Warriors need to steal game 4.

Yeah I was already counting my sats when they took the lead in the 3rd quarter.  The Celtics were on the rebounds like nothing I've seen against the Warriors this season.  Usually GS is one of the best at defending and allowing one or two shots max.  The rebounds were the killer.

Anyway, I expect to see GS tie up the series on Friday.  The NBA Finals have needed all 7 games to decide the champions for the last 7 years straight, and I don't expect either of these teams to run away with it.  They are very evenly matched, which makes the series a lot fun.

Exactly, they are evenly matched and I like the Celtics because they continue with playing great basketball despite they are playing a team that have won multiple championships in the past. Thompson played well in game 2, it was a breakout game for him in the series but Poole was missing, I expect these 3 shooters to contribute with consistency in game 4 so they'll be able to even the series, also, I hope Draymond will not be in foul trouble.
